Toronto’s no longer number one in North America in high-rise construction

—The number of high-rise buildings under construction in Toronto as of September, according to Emporis data cited in the city’s monthly economic dashboard report. The only city with more high-rise construction, by Emporis’ reckoning, is New York, at 154. That wasn’t always the case: Toronto’s high-rise count was consistently the highest in North America until this summer. (If these somewhat-imperfect stats are anything to go by, at any rate.)
